Scrubbing up again!
Heath Ledger: On the anniversary of his death (Jan. 22, 2008), he gets a posthumous Oscar nomination, the only one for The Dark Knight.
George Clooney: After months of ‘will he or won’t he?’ debate, Clooney will indeed make the rounds once more on ER, PEOPLE is reporting.
Oscars: Wall-E isn’t up for best picture after all. Dun dun dunnnnnn.
Oscars, Pt. 2: The Golden Globes nominated Kate Winslet for supporting actress in The Reader. Now she’s got leading actress but nothing for Revolutionary Road, which–unlike at the Globes–was shut out of the top categories.
American Idol: Can anything take this thing down? Even with the inaugural festivities broadcast last night, Idol still racked up the highest ratings. There’s gotta be a fix, right? Or were people Obama-ed out by nightfall?
Veronica Mars: Fans who felt jilted by the show’s cancellation a few years back can rejoice now that a movie adaptation is finally underway. Never watched the series but probably could be convinced to go see it.
Fall Out Boy: Recorded a special version of The Simpsons theme song, to be played after this week’s episode. Our guess is Star Wars is next.
Obama: Gotta love the internet. You can be in one place and still see practically every Obama front page from yesterday’s papers.
Obama, Pt. 2: He doesn’t have to give up his addiction! Obama will keep the CrackBerry, now outfitted with special security encryption. So how long until it’s hacked?
The Daily Show: Time flies! The little series that could is 10 years old! And Variety has a bunch of articles to mark the milestone.
No Doubt: Hey baby! Going on tour (with Paramore) this summer for the first time in 5 years!
SIZZLED OUT: Marcia Cross
STILL SIZZLING: This alleged hold-out on a TV-to-movie adaptation said he might “put the script in his shredder.”
